Jamie, I'd say overall, lighting makes little difference. All the blues and greens stayed the same (for the most part) but putting 10k back on sure brought back the pinks. I have a pocillipora that is a deep pink and the radiums wiped it really bad. My pink bird's nest also turned brown under the radiums.
I think now I get the intensity I need to penetrate the branches AND the radium in the center gives me a nice blue hue to the tank. Running three bulbs bumbed the heat a bit, but I'll have a chiller next year.
The stag in the first pic was a bit deeper purple before, but it heading back that way now.
I'm going to work on some better pics from the top over the next few days, so maybe I can get some sharper details.
